They're calling for 15"-20" of rain, and high winds here, and I'm 5 hours west of the coast :shock:
It's going to be a lot worse east of me. You folks take care.

I'm not feeling good about this storm. Latest predictions have us taking it right up the gut as a catagory 4. Gonna board the house up and ride it out at work most likely. Ya'll be safe!

One of the many reasons that I moved from NE FL back to middle TN. Good luck to all living in the impact zone. I know what it's like and do not envy you the experience.

I hope that the storm does some weird swing to the NE but that is wishing it looks like. You Carolina boys are going to get slammed. Looks like the Roanoke, VA (Bassett) area will get dumped on bad as well. For me (Richmond, VA) will just get a drizzle of 10-12". Checking the generator tomorrow so I will be ready. About every 7-8 years it happens. Guess the time is this year. Good luck guys.

Be safe guys. I was lucky enough to get married in the Outer Banks last month.
Northern Va is just going to get rain.
Let me know if you need any cleanup help. Have beer will travel.

Might be a little crowded on 81 and 95 with all the boats of people sight seeing.

Ran both of our generators today, just hope I still have the garage that they're stored in after the storm. It's been so long since we've had a major storm here and our population has exploded and most of them being retirees from the north that aren't use to the fact these things happen. It's causing a good bit of panic in the stores. Gas stations are sold out and water is getting hard to come by.
